1. Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together the orange juice, orange zest, honey, soy sauce, olive oil, and minced garlic.
2. Season the Salmon: Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper on both sides.
3. Marinate the Fish: Drizzle half of the marinade over the salmon and let it sit for about 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
4. Cook the Salmon: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the marinated salmon, skin-side down, and cook for about 4-5 minutes.
